Summary
This 2002 Mini Cooper S race car has been extensively campaigned in NASA events, including a podium finish in the 2009 US Touring Car series. It features a highly modified supercharged 1. 6L inline-four, a 6-speed manual transmission with an OS Giken limited-slip differential, and a full suite of WMS suspension and aero components.
More details
The interior is stripped for racing with a custom WMS roll cage, Cobra race seat, and fire system, though some safety equipment may need updating for current NASA compliance.
